Yes, most notably humidly and temp. Just to give you an idea, on a cool moist day I can run 20 psi with no ping or problems. Same tank of fuel when its over 90º I am lucky to see 14 psi. So your talking around a 30hp difference. Turbo and Supercharged cars feel the effects of heat more then NAs do. Cold air is a lot denser.
